Elvis Song in British BMW TV Commercial

We have another

TV ad featuring the music of Elvis Presley, this time BMW with the launch of their new 3 Series. 'What all winners have in common is joy'. That's the baseline for the new BMW '3 Series' TV ads. The clip that currently promotes the new BMW cars on UK television, comes with the remix of Elvis' A Little Less Conversation. It just shows once again that you can't keep a good song down. This makes it the tenth in the past year and we congratulate EPE for allowing the use and in effect providing very clever marketing.
